DAY 1
The Salar routeThe best way to experience the largest dry Salt Lake in the world is on a motorcycle. Come and have a fun day with us riding in this magical place. The endless open white expanse with a perfect deep blue sky make this a very memorable day.
The day starts with you arriving at our Uyuni office at 9.30 a.m. After a briefing we will kit you out with all your riding gear and get you comfortable with your bike. The Train Cemetery is our first destination, just 3km out of town. Full of old steam trains, this makes a good photo spot.
20 km further, on the new ash felt road we arrive at the main entrance to the salt flats. This is a small town called Colchani. Famous for mining and processing Salt. Here is where we stock up on souvenirs and keepsakes of the tour.
Next we are riding on the salt flat to Playa Blanca, the flags and Dakar monument. After some more photos we cross the Salar riding to the Cactus island in the center, called Incahuasi.
Here we eat lunch and take a tour of this volcanic island before heading back across the Salar. On the way back we will stop and takes some silly photos that play with perspective. We arrive back the office about 5.30 p.m. giving you plenty of time to recover from this exciting day. The Total riding distance of 180km.

DAY 2
The mountain route
Today we will ride 225 km, 80 kilometers off road and 145 on tarmac. If you have no off road experience, today’s riding is a great way to learn.
We will head out on the twisty roads up into the mountains at over 4000 m altitude. After 45 km we turn off the road; this is where the dirt road riding begins; we ride up through the fields of heather to Tollapampa, past some lagoons to the painteresque town of Villa Concepcion. If we are lucky some Nañdu will appear through our ride.
We continue to the colonial town of Tomave, here we have our homemade packed lunch in front of old historic church.
We return to Uyuni, with 25 km of dirt tracks through the breath taking multicolored mountains and finish the last 60 km on tarmac.
